Possible Causes

Debris in pump impeller, scale buildup, worn pump bearings, failed pump motor

Safety: Turn off power and water. Allow hot components to cool.

Access pump: Locate the water circulation pump in the reservoir area.
Clean impeller: Remove the pump housing and clear any debris or scale from the impeller and housing.
Check for free rotation: Spin the impeller by hand; it should move smoothly. If stiff or seized, replace the pump.
Reassemble and test: Reinstall the pump, restore power, and verify quiet, steady water flow over the evaporator.
